Now that's what I wanted to hear! You made my day, thanks for the heads up. I've had EHTBP before and I wholeheartedly agree! :- ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMartin42 Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Had to fill the open slot on the bar and this was the winner. Only one sip in but I can tell it’s fairly young, BUT also that it is VERY drinkable. This will be fun to explore it more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
callingtom Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Just opened an EW SB 2010. Very nice 8 year that was $25. Low proof so just a nice sipper with no burn. Makes up for the fact that it is snowing here! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 2003 EWSiB was the bottle that got me on the Bourbon train. Enjoy. Cheers Edited April 28, 2019 by Wedelstaedt nothing special Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoustonNit Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Picked up a new 4R Small Batch Select today and opened it. At $58 it’s a little more than I wanted to spend. First impressions this is really good, good spice a bit dry the way I like it. Really a profile I really enjoy, I think anyone that likes 4R or Turkey should get one. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Annoyed it’s not in my market and not willing to pay to have one shipped so will just have to be patient. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako254 Posted May 1, 2019 Author Share Posted May 1, 2019 I don’t venture out of Lawrenceburg often but when I do it is for 12 year old, NCF barrel proof, laid down by parker beam ECBP. Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey as it should be. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really look forward to trying it too, but there is a comfort in waiting patiently, knowing that it will be a readily available permanent expression. No need to horde. Kudos to Four Roses, one of my favorite distillers. They do things right. Must just be the culture over there in Lawrenceburg, KY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can buy it from California, avoid tax, and pay shipping, and it still ends up being cheaper than what I will pay for it whenever it gets here. So that's what I did. I don't do this regularly because I prefer to support my local store but since we won't see it for a year or so it made sense for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golferpimp1 Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 Been a while since I have opened a bottle other than a daily drinker. This is good stuff. To my taste seems along the lines of MGP which I am a huge fan of. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not great at describing Nose, Palate, and Finish, but it has a floral nose, with vanilla, leather and earthiness on the palate. I thought my second pour over ice was better than the neat pour I had in the Glencairn. I was expecting Russell's Reserve type flavors, but it reminded me more of Rare Breed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s better than those two. The bottle goes for $45 by me. It’s pretty good, but not $90/fifth good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vosgar Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Another BIB that's gone by the wayside, too bad. (for you heavy drinkers, that's a 200ml bottle, not a giant Glencairn ) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
